Book description
In all statements concerning the socio-political system of the studied Southeast Asian countries, it is noteworthy that the argument about their civilizational peculiarities is raised. This is undoubtedly the case. But since in these countries the rules of market economic action are applied with equal success as in the rest of the world, it is reasonable to assume that the political canon of institutional arrangements may be no different. The overcaution in evaluating the existing political settlements in Asia derives from our unwarranted propensity to believe that a given country’s cultural specificity automatically invalidates the universal rules of the political order that are fundamental for the civilizational development of that country. These mistaken assumptions fail to consider that the whole of humanity is bound by the ambition to ensure the best conditions for its development. Similarly, the desire for justice is deeply embedded within us all.
